Job description

At eBay, we're more than a global ecommerce leader — we’re changing the way the world shops and sells. Our platform empowers millions of buyers and sellers in more than 190 markets around the world. We’re committed to pushing boundaries and leaving our mark as we reinvent the future of ecommerce for enthusiasts.

Our customers are our compass, authenticity thrives, bold ideas are welcome, and everyone can bring their unique selves to work — every day. We're in this together, sustaining the future of our customers, our company, and our planet.

Join a team of passionate thinkers, innovators, and dreamers — and help us connect people and build communities to create economic opportunity for all.

Do you want to contribute to revolutionizing re-commerce and driving circularity in the fashion industry? Can you change mindsets to positively impact economics, the environment and communities?

We have a 12 month fixed term contract for someone to play a pivotal role in driving eBay’s position in Fashion. With a passion for sustainability, a background working in fashion business development or sales, this is the perfect opportunity for someone who wants to make a difference in how the UK shops.

This role is critical in helping to shape the fashion preloved category strategy, and execute this through acquiring strategically important sellers, brands and retailers to ensure that eBay has the inventory to continue to grow this area.

The role is responsible for building, leading and delivering the end to end acquisition pipeline to optimise the selection of brands and inventory on the eBay platform for customers.

If you have strong fashion contacts, a great marketplace background in acquiring brands and sellers that customers love through a high energy, innovative approach that brings fresh ideas to the table, we would love to hear from you !

What you will accomplish :

This role will identify targets and a network of contacts for both the short and long term acquisition of businesses new to eBay. Through running a significant sales pipeline, providing a constant stream of new inventory to site from such brands & sellers for the ‘Trading’ function to leveraging our regular promotional cycles, it will deliver on a range of critical metrics and success measures.

Working with newly onboarded brands and sellers to deliver on their readiness to trade ensuring they are optimising the full trading capability of the platform, the role will also build and expand partnerships with marketplace agencies / service providers who have limited presence on eBay UK today to further drive seller and inventory acquisition to grow the ebay business.

Constantly innovating, developing your operating model to keep pace with the constantly evolving ecommerce and commerce market plus building the team’s execution and operational capability, this exciting opening will drive procedural change and business performance.

Success measures will include :
  • Revenue, customer and operationally led focus
  • GMV target for new brands, sellers and inventory
  • Target list to fix inventory gaps and broaden brand coverage
  • Establishment of a broader partner network to support the E2E acquisition pipeline
  • Deliver ROI on commercial agreements with associated partners

What we are looking for...

eCommerce & Marketplaces knowledge: a validated background and understanding of the marketplaces/platform and resale market, its competitors and supporting businesses (i.e. listing management; integrators; logistics; customer services) with a clear point of view on what is required for our partners to succeed in this space. Fashion / retail experience is required.

New business & commercial expertise: experience in developing new business for a large organisation, having worked with e-commerce commercial teams and consistently delivered results optimally even under challenging circumstances.
